CDL-A Driver - Paid Training, 11 West States

Job Description

Job Description

Central Valley drivers: runs in the 11 western states, usually two days or less out, home every two weeks.

Fresh out of CDL school? This position takes new drivers, and we will walk you through every step.

What new drivers usually worry about

• "Does my CDL school count?" If it was 120 hours or more, yes.
• "I am not good at backing yet." Nobody is on day one. You get weeks of practice with a mentor next to you before you ever drive alone.
• "What if my first solo weeks are slow?" You still get at least $1,000 a week for your first 3 months.
• "Will I be gone for months?" No. Runs are usually 2 days or less and you are home every two weeks.

How we get you from CDL school to solo

• Call: we talk through your license and record first. No surprises later.
• Orientation: up to 2 days, hotel covered, one-way bus fare reimbursed, $300 after you are hired.
• Training: 4 to 6 weeks riding with a mentor who helps with backing, logs, fuel stops and route planning. Pay is $680 to $850 weekly.
• Solo: your own truck, fleet average age 1.5 years, 10-speeds and automatics. $1,000 weekly guarantee for 3 months.
